Stay away by Janeya Holley (beach read book txt) 📖

I felt like crap i came to school with shorts on my hair in a messy  half up-down  and my sweater that said "train wreck over here!" on it.I see Brad ,and he sees me, he walks toward me.

"Well you look exactly what your shirt says." Brad said smiling down on me.

" You can say that again...I couldn't sleep last night." I said leaning against my locker. I felt sick to my stomache like I'd been kicked 100 times. 

 " Shouldn't you be with you're lover, your soulmate." he says smiling at me.

"No!" I snapped. " He's nothing to me!" I look down and imagine last night and my stomache felt sick.

"Well, someone had a bad break-up..." He says raising his eyebrows.

"Yeah..." The bell rings and I sigh." Walk me to class?"

As we walk down the hallway I  see Micheal and my heart drops to my stomache. Regretting it I walk down the hall . Micheal looks at me with a smile and starts to walk towards me.

 "Can I talk to you,real quick love?" He says pulling me to the side before I answer.

"What do you want? I have to get to class.." I say about to walk away. Then I feel and hand on my wristy pulling me  back.

"Are you trying to make me look bad?huh?" He says angrily.

" Don't have time for this I'm going to be late" I snap back at him and I start to walk away.

"You can't ignore me! I wont let you!"He says as I walk down the hallway towards my class.

"Leave me alone ...it's over" I walk over to Brad and he walks me to class.

After two periods of class i realized that Michael was my chemistry partner,I walk into the classroom, and I walk over to Brad. " Can I sit here?"

"Sure..." -I sit down next to him and I sigh-"He loves you , he thinks you're the perfect girl.."

"He has a weird way of showing it." I whisper to him.

" And I believe him, a beautiful girl like you"He brushes a piece of hair behind my ear with his fingers.

"Brad , Allison likes you." I say movng his hand.

"Elsa, come on we all know that me and Allison aren't a perfect fit but me and you; we're perfect" I felt his hand drop to my knee and felt it slide up slowly.

I see Michael staring at us and instantly pull Brads hand away then I move away into a seat across the room. I see the fury in his eyes and I get very scared and I start to shrink. 

After school I think about Michael ;Does he hate me?, I thought as I cut through a parking lot that leads to the back of my house. When I get home I see him sitting on my back porch and I suddenly freeze. I stare at him before I start to walk ,but he doesnt look angry which scares me even more. You never know what he is thinking which makes you even more cautious then ever.

" what are you doing here?" I ask as I walk toward the steps.

"I saw you in class today, and I know you saw me. Are you trying to embarass me?" He says every calmly not looking me in the eye. He stands up and I back up as he comes down the steps." What do you think people are saying when they see you with another guy when you're with me,silly?"

" I told you its over we are not together anymore, and I'm not with you."
